Did you know cross‑border adoptions succeed when compliance and aftercare are built in from the start? This program links shelters in Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Hungary, and beyond with screened adopters across Europe.

Every adoption story is a bridge — one that connects a rescued animal’s past struggle to its new life of safety and love. Through our Adoption Across Borders program, Global Animal Aid helped make these journeys smoother, safer, and more transparent across Europe.
We funded EU pet passports, vaccinations, microchipping, behavior assessments, and coordinated transport logistics to ensure every adopted animal traveled legally and comfortably. Adopters received education packs, 90-day support, and regular check-ins to help pets settle into their new homes.
Our partner shelters in Ukraine, Poland, Romania, and Hungary worked together using unified adoption forms and shared criteria. This collaboration built trust and made every match fair, transparent, and in the best interest of the animal.
What begins in a shelter — often with fear or uncertainty — now ends with peace, comfort, and belonging. Thanks to this initiative, hundreds of dogs and cats have already made their way from rescue kennels to loving sofas across Europe, proving that compassion truly knows no borders.
Paperwork streamlined — compliant documents completed pre‑travel.
Welfare‑first transport — rest stops, water plans, and stress‑reduction protocols.
Adopter support — guidance and follow‑ups reduced returns and built confidence.
“Our cat came from Romania. With the guidance pack and check‑ins, settling took weeks, not months.”

Every donation goes directly to rescuing animals, providing medical care, shelter, and food. With your help, we can give them hope and a future.
